It’s possible you have a different alarm than the port installed one. Maybe a PO swapped it out. My light was to the right of the steering wheel. Post a pic of your fob.
x2 on the Badlands. Have used mine at least a half dozen times and it functioned fine. Also used a couple of them to recover my old LC off a mountain and they did the job. Can't beat them for the money but I would also suggest waterproofing it better.
I used raptor on my drawer system and sleeping platform made out of plywood. No issues. I had some left over from another project so quickly pulled the drawers and sleeping platform out and sprayed them. Didn’t do any kind of prep work and they have held up decent.
For coverage I would...
I’ve installed 2 of these and no issues. One thing I did notice is that where the 2 pipes go into 1, yours is different than mine were.
Glad I got mine before the quality went down.
And I checked and mine were the same part number.
On a 97, the wiring is installed even on vehicles that didn't have factory installed axle diff locks. So that plug should be there just like the one in the passenger kick panel that you previously found where the axle diff lock ecu would be.
No problem. I was having a hard time trying to decipher which issue you were having so that’s why I asked. I’ve replaced a handful of the sensors but yours looks to be good. Without the sensor working it won’t engage the actuator (unless you did the 7 pin mod too).
Seems like you are on the...
What year is your LC? Is it equipped with factory lockers? You stated here that it did not have the box installed for the factory differential lockers. Is that correct?
Have you checked CDL Sensor on the transfer case?
Take a look at these threads.

1997 LX450 CDL...
I had one on my last LC and it worked well. Seemed to be OEM. Made a huge difference with a roof rack on there. My current LX450 didn’t come with one so I’d be curious with what you come up with.
On a LX450 I bought the PO had mounted it lower on the bumper with some holes above the winch fair lead.
Didn’t keep it there as I had mounts on my rack for it.
I got my set from 4xinnovations originally but a quick look at their website and I don’t see anything listed for 80’s anymore. May take a phone call them to see if they still offer them.

Went yesterday to get an extra key made for my LX at the Lexus dealership. They pulled the code from the VIN and made the key from that. The key that was made was no where close to the same pattern. Didn’t think to try it in the LX as it was way different.
Got home and found this thread...
Winched it over back on to its wheels, pulled the plugs and turned it over to get any fluids out. Put the plugs back in and it fired right up. I put it in drive and it didn't move. Leaked transmission fluid out. Left it for the night and ran to town the next morning to get supplies. Filled it up...
Couldn't agree more with the things @2fpower said. And as he said, TAC (our local club) has been amazing. The amount of help that has been given has been overwhelming and everyone in the club keeps offering up more. Also the support from the vendors @beno and @sleeoffroad is top notch.
